Algal Autophagy Is Necessary for the Regulation of Carbon Metabolism Under Nutrient Deficiency
Autophagy is a mechanism to recycle intracellular constituents such as amino acids and other carbon- and nitrogen (N)-containing compounds. Although autophagy-related (ATG) genes required for autophagy are encoded by many algal genomes, their functional importance in microalgae in nutrient-deficienc...
